Loip City Northwestern J. W. BURL BIO H, WOT CITT. . . H—1AIIKA A Significant Nickname. The unfeeling frankness of youth does not stop at unpleasant truth-tell ing. Bren the gentle sex may suffer at the hands of Its brothers. It is dangerous for a’girl—at least for a girl at a coeducational school—to echo Bum’s wish, “O wad some Pow’r the giftie gle us To see oursel’s as others see us! lest her desire be realized with unex pected fulness. For—could mind of women ever think it?—the boys of these schools have nicknamed their sister students “fussers!” Was the name born of the numerous sofa pil lows and footstools with which the maidens fill their rooms, the chafing dishes and teatables and hatpin-cases and ring-boxes and alpenstocks and rocking chairs which make dangerous a hasty progress through the femi nine study? At all events, the com bination of these feminine acquisitions has embodied itself in the crisp, mas culine epithet, “fusser.” Perhaps the phrase is a comment on a state of mind as well as on a method of house keeping. In the opinion of the college boy, Maid Marian “fusses” about les sons, about “marks,” about commit tees, about what faculty or classmates think of her. She lacks his cheerful fatalism, and he tags her with the epithet which, he thinks, fits her con science and her mind, as well as her room and her wardrobe. The modern girl, says Youth's Companion, must find a way to free herself of impedi menta, both physical and Intellectual, if she would induce her critics to drop the objectionable nickname and grant her rank as an artist in the pleasant business of living. All the iron furnaces in the world produced less iron in 1894 than will be turned out of the furnaces in the United States during the current year, if the rate of production for the first six months is maintained. This fact indicates a marvelous expansion in the iron business. No more convincing proof of the solid foundation of the na tional prosperity could be afforded than this, for it is well known that a nation's consumption of iron is an in dex to its business condition. This is not because there is any mysterious virtue in iron, but because iron is used extensively only in prosperous times. Nearly 13,500,000 tons of pigiro^ were turned odt from January till June. This is more than the total yearly out put for any 12 months prior to 1S99, and more than either Germany or England have ever made in any full year. There are no indications of a falling off in the American production. On June 30 29 new furnaces were un der construction, and 13 more were projected. The United States produces snore iron and more cotton than any ether country. It exports the greater part of the cotton, but uses nearly all ef the iron in its own industries. The soarabaeus, the sacred beetle of Egypt, was an object of worship in elden days, and, was most carefully embalmed at death. The ancient Egyptians believed the heart to be the center of intellect as well as the source of life, and rembved this organ when the embalming process took place, a model of the scarabaeus be ing put in its place. There are many varieties of this sacred beetle, as the monuments in Egypt show. The scarab was the favorite insignia of both men and women, and was worn as a charm to protect from harm and insure de sirable qualities to make them attrac ♦ tive. Many hard stones were used for these models, and turquoise matrix, lapis-lazuli, jasper, amethyst, agate and onyx being much in favor. Some of the ancient ones are cleverly cut and were used as coin of the realm. The finest are found with the mum mies in old tombs. What a pity it would have been had the Bastile been taken in the winter, rather than in the sumiher. No doubt those who participated in that famous victory found it full hot enough at the time, but those who now recall their doughty achievements with feast and dance would have found far less in centive from a French winter than from a French summer. In this way does a kindly fate look heedfully to the future. The perspiring and pow der-grimed fighters of the Place de la Bastille a hundred years ago little thought how much their descendants would appreciate the July weather which is an established part of the great national fete. In mottoes and similar inscriptions, appropriateness is as important as sentiment. During Boston's recent “Old Home Week” a conspicuous part of the decorations in one of the sub urbs was “Welcome,” displayed in large letters, over the door of the po lice station. Knabenshue’s airship bumped into a schoolhouse in Toronto with unpleas ant results for the operator. The air ship may have been aware that its early education had been neglected. * Consul, the monkey that has figured as a guest of honor at Newport din ners, smokes two packages of cigar ettes a day. And there are others. ‘ It is calculated that there are about 110,000 vessels in the world, not count ing the schooners that are smothered in foam as they cross the bar. A Cincinnati man dropped dead while buttoning a waist for his wife, a fitting punishment for saying un FI HEALTH'S SAKE r , , 8E,E THAT YOUR FOODSTUFFS ARE PURE. ADULTERATIONS ARE COMMON Unscrupulous Dealers in Large Cities the Medium for Disposing of Such Goods—Purchase at Home. For years one of the matters which has received the careful attention of the department of agriculture is food adulteration. Who has not heard of the old libel on the state of Connecti cut—the wooden nutmeg, but there are worse things thhn wooden nut megs. Unprincipled manufacturers and dealers for many years have re sorted to adulteration of foodstuffs to increase profits. In the matter of spices, only a short time since the food commission of one of the states discovered among 50 samples analyzed more than 30 that were adulterated. In pepper, stems and barks were ground, In every class of ground spice foreign substances were added to give weight, and in numerous cases, particularly flavoring extracts, the ar ticles supposed to he made from pure fruits, were found to be synthetical, or entirely artificial, preparations from coal tar. These goods were prepared by con cerns that have no regular trade, but depend upon agents to sell goods for them to whoever they can. It is rare ly that a reliable wholesale grocery house sells such goods, as retailers will not knowingly keep them in stock, as they cannot be legally sold, and some officer of the food depart ment of the state is likely to drop into the store at any time, confiscate the goods, and impose e. heavy fine on the dealer. A short time ago health officers in Philadelphia found a number of Ital ians in a cellar putting oil in bottles, and labeling the same with a foreign looking label. An analysis of the oil proved it to be mainly a poor quality of cetton-seed oil, and the lowest grade of olive. Hundreds of cases of the stuff were traced to a city in the middle west, where it was dis posed of under contract to houses who sell direct to consumers through agents and by mail. Not alone Are spices, extracts, olive oil and sim ilar foodstuffs adulterated this way, but the fraud extends still further. Cheap Unde of fish, such as hake, cat flsh, etc., are prepared and placed on the market as genuine codfish. Toma te catsups are made of a good quality of pumpkin and given the right color by dye stuffs, and flavored by the use of coal tar extracts. Hundreds of other articles are “doctored" the same way. It is rarely that such artificial goods find their way into the hands of regular grocers throughout the eeantry, but are disposed of by con cerns who depend upon doing busi ness at points distant from their loca tion, and who seek protection in the interstate commerce law, and who seek to dispose of their goods directly to the consumers, as no federal or state officer is likely to call at a pri vate house and make an analysis of foods used. It seems that neither the national or state laws can be so closely ap plied as to prevent this evil. If the masses of people would study into this question the buying of foods from others than local dealers, who are known to be honest, would be the re sult, and the daily reports of people being mysteriously poisoned by eating some article of food would not be so numerous. Trust "Graft,” One of the practices of the trusts in the marketing of their products, is the prize schemes. In order to induce the consumers to use their various brands of goods, attractive offers are made to exchange different articles for certificates and coupons. But it is always intended that the consum ers "pay the freight.” Generally where premiums are offered with goods, the packages are short in weight, or a few cents more charged than goods of like kind sell for. Thus it can be seen how the premiums given are paid for by the consumer, and he pays a high price for the prizes he draws. Goods that are given away with purchases cost money. Their cost does not come out of the pockets of the manufacturers, but out of the purses of the people who use the goods. If one desires to buy sugar, he does not care to pay for the scoop or shovel. He wants sugar, and at the lowest price con sistent. He knows that if he takes the scoop or the shovel some one pays the bill. Various systems of premium giving have been devised. Some call for a certain number of coupons of tome sort, and so much cash, or some article just for the coupons alone. Where cash is re quired along with coupons there is apparently an additional profit in the deal aside from that made on the goods with which coupons are given. It is well to buy goods on their merits alone. Buy what you want and at the right price, and you will be ahead of the premium plan. Another Meanest Man. We've heard of the meanest man in town, and his faithful wife in her faded gown, and of Maud in the stub ble raking hay, when the good old judge rode her way; and the famous liar with line and pole, and the truant boy and swimming hole; but the freak of all is the man who goes and buys for family food and clothes on credit for six months or more, from the keep er of the local store, and when for cash he sells his crops, at tbe local store he never stops; forgets the bill he ought to pay, and for things he wants he sends away to Make & Fake who want the "mon,” and who sell “for cash” to everyone. This man with mind of little strength, can't see liie “plunk” at arm’s length, but grabn the penny near his eye, and lets ! the lettering dollars lie. TRADE'S GREAT MAGNET. How Some Mammoth Fortunes Have Been Built Up. Many of the great fortunes in Amer ica have been gained by the judleious use of printers’ ink. The wealthiest merchants attribute their success to advertising. Millions and millions of dollars’ worth of manufactured prod ucts are annually sold to the people of the United States through the ad vertising pages of the public press, the only medium. Consider the new fangled breakfast foods, the numerous natural food preparations! It is more than likely they would never have be come known without their merits were exploited before the people through the newspapers. Great exclu sive mail-order houses. Institutions that have come into existence during the past 20 years, have been built up entirely through judicious advertis ing. As to the mail order houses, there is a loud clamor against their en croachments throughout the country. There is every cause for alarm that they will eventually grow into such mammoth institutions as will monop olize the business that is now the backbone and spine of the country towns. There is one way that the merchants can lessen the evil. It is by persistent use of the public press. Use advertising space, meet the com petition rightly and squarely and let the people know about it. Hundreds of would-be business ven tures have failed just because there was no proper advertising. Hundreds and thousands of small merchants fall for the same cause. The paper in a small town is of greater force than the average merchant thinks, if the storekeeper desires to test his home paper as an advertising medium, let him insert an advertisement of some article and put the price lower than it is generally sold at. Then await results. He will find that the people will learn of it, and call to see about it. Dollars to the editor for advertis ing space are never lost if the adver tising is of the proper kind. The in vestment will bring greater returns to the merchant than money invested in any other way. One trouble is that the average merchant knows little about proper methods of advertising. A simple oard “John Joaes, Grocer, sells groceries” is of but little ase. Make advertising attractive. Tell about goods, about prices, and every thing that a prospective purchaser may wan: to know. Keep persistently at it. Change advertisements week after week. The people look far it, and it will pay. D. M. CARR. HELPING THE TRUSTS. System* That Are Oppeeed te the Welfare of the Maaaes. Nearly a century age, Disraeli, the elder, In his. essay on gassing sad gambling, wrote: “The savage and the civilized, the illiterate and the leara ed. are alike captivated by the hope of accumulating wealth without the labors of industry.” In this saying the great statesman and writer sounded the keynote of much of the woes met with in life. It is the desire to seeure wealth without labor, to gain some thing for nothing, that causes maay to go to their graves “unwept, uahouored and unsung." The man who gleefully sings “Make a few dollars earn you a living,” will be sure to find many people ready to believe him. They will take a "chance” anyway, and the gullible are so numerous that the promoter really succeeds in “accumulating wealth without tbe labors of industry,” but the others—his victims—generally fail. During the past few years one large concern that has for long been drain ing the rural districts of surplus wealth, has built a city of its own, and has erected buildings for the ac commodation of 7,000 people. This concern does not draw a cent of trade from the people of the city wherein it is located. All its wealth and the means by which it built up its “own city” has been contributed by people scattered throughout the country. How few there are who think that when they send money to this great concern for supplies that might as well be bought in their home town, that they are helping to deal a death blow to the place they call home? Yet such is the fact. Every dollar sent to the large city, assists in the build ing up of greater trusts, and great er combinations, that seek to control the manufacturing, the mercantile business, and as well the prices ol labor and all the products of the work shop and the farm. It means busi ness oligarchy to which the common people should not submit. D. M. CARR. Millions Are Lost Annually. xFifty millions of dollars annually is a conservative estimate of the amount that the people of the United States are swindled out of through the opera tion of fraudulent investment and in surance concerns. How easily people are influenced to make investments in questionable con cerns. has been recently strongly il lustrated through the operations of the different alleged cooperative mer cantile, home-building and investment schemes which have been declared fraudulent by the postal authorities. It is during the times of prosperity that the schemers find the richest, field. People who never had the hand ling of much money, and who find in their possession a few hundreds of dollars, just have enough for the “taste” of wealth so that they are easy victims for the sharpers who op erate “fake” enterprises which hold out alluring promises of great re turns on small investments. State laws for the control of such concerns should be stringent, and severe pun ishment meted to those who operate them. Catch-Penny Advertisements. ' Beware of 'the advertisements in which it is stated that “this article will be sent on approval for one dol lar.” It means that you will have something on your hands, and a good RICH MEN PLAN AFRICAN EMPIRE AMBITIOUS SCHEME IN WHICH NEW YORK MILLIONAIRES WILL INVEST MONEY. PARTNERS OF A MONARCH Thomas T. Ryan, James D. Stillman, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., and Oth ers Have Joined King Leopold in Effort to Open Up Dark Continent and Incidentally to Turn Their Millions Into Billions! New York.—In the heart of Equa torial Africa a group of New York millionaries has acquired an empire. Out of this empire, representing in direct and indirect control a region of 166,000 square milfs, they expect to Increase their millions, perhaps to turn them into billions. The men who are eiploiting this untrodden wilderness of forest, moun tain, jungle and morass are Thomas F. Ryan, James D. Stillman, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., H. P. Whitney, E. B. Aldrich and the Guggenheim brothers. Other names have been mentioned, in cluding those of J. P. Morgan, Thomas F. Walsh and Anthony N. Brady, who may own stock in the two great com panies which have been formed, but they are not directors in either and have taken no active part in their or ganization. These men have as partners Leo pold, king of the Belgians, and a few Belgian financiers. Their empire is in the heart of the Congo Free State; in fact it stretches almost across its greatest breadth, from east to west, and consists of be tween 8,000,000 and 9,000,000 acres, or, roughly speaking,, an area about the size of New Hampshire and Ver mont. Over this they have powers which are virtually absolute. Nom inally th Congo courts have jurisdic tion over the territory and it is gov erned by the laws of the Congo, but actually these Americans are its mas ters. They have the right to police it and the terms of their concession impose this upon them as a duty. They may employ native labor or may import coolies or Americans, just as they like, but there is no doubt they will employ natives. Thomat F. Ryan. is from rubber, the minerals being virtually untouched. So Mr. Ryan and his associates have every reason to hope for large profits. Exact Investment Unknown. The exact amount they are invest ing in the Congo is difficult to ascer tain, but it is known that they paid King Leopold $1,500,000 for the con cession, and that he and the Belgian stockholders retain a substantial block of stock in the Societe Internationale Forestiere et Minere du Congo, one of the companies they have formed. The other company is the American Congo company; just how the shares in this are allotted is not yet known. Be sides these companies there are the two great Belgian corporations which have had enormous concessions for many years: these are the Anglo-Bel gian India Rubber company and the Katanga company. In both of these the Americans have bought large blocks of stock—enough to secure a dominating influence. The former has a concession for 25,000 square miles, the latter for an area averaging 420 miles long by 300 miles wide. These latter companies are im mensely profitable. They collect the taxes and police their own territory, and the methods used by some of their employes in collecting the taxes, which are paid in rubber have sup plied the enemies of King Leopold with ammunition for their campaign. Whatever truth there may be in the stories of “atrocities" must be laid at the door of these concessionaries. Their experience with the natives as workers will be valuable to the Amer icans, as the latter will have precisely the same conditions to meet and have almost as plenary powers as thei^ forerunners. These powers have been curtailed within a year, as a re sult of the abuses which a Belgian commission discovered. The conces sionaires have been forbidden, for in stance, to use armed native sentries or armed overseers. Difficulties in the Way. The great difficulty ahead of Mr. Ryan's men is the improvidence and savagery of the natives upon whom they will have to rely to do the work. Money means nothing to them. They* must be paid, at any rate at first, in something they can use—such as cot ton, beads or knives, and it is the in tention of the, Americans to furnish the natives with food and lodging as a return for their labor. But it is ex ceedingly difficult to persuade these men to labor at all. They care noth ing for the development of the coun Project Originally Hammond’s. King Leopold secretly sold these Americans this concession some months ago. Mr. Ryan is not a man who is in the habit of going into gi gantic transactions without knowledge of what he is doing or without some definite assurance that he will reap a substantial profit from his investment The man who advised him that there was big money to be made in the Congo was John Hayes Hammond, the famous engineer, who had looked Central America over in a general way, and who knew the vast mineral wealth that lay hidden in its immemorial rocks. He had traveled through its forests of rubber trees, ebony, ma hogany and other valuable woods, and he knew that, even if the gold, the copper, the silver should not pan out as he expected, there was enough money to be made out of the rubber and the wood to reward handsomely the men who should open up the coun try. Upon his report, supported by th* reports of ether experts, Mr. Ryan Map of Western Africa Showing the by the American Syndicate Throuj accepted the suggestion of the king of the Belgians that he take a long lease of this vast territory. Of course it is something of a gam ble, for the American explorers are going into what is virtually unknown country, and the difficulties, sanitary, engineering, economical, etc., may prove so great that they will not im mediately make any profits. But the odds are so heavily in their favor that the chance was well worth taking. The crown domain, which is a large part of the Congo, returns at a con servative estimate a profit of at least 1700,000 a year, and almost all of this l _ 166,000 Miles of Territory Controlled h Concession and Stock Ownership. try, preferring to live by hunting, fish ing and gathering the fruits and nuts with which nature has supplied them so bounteously. Many of them are canibals still and would practice their gruesome rites if it were not for their dread of the stern punishment that is meted out to any who may be caught eating human flesh. This is made a ciime by the laws of the Congo and is punishable by death. Cannibalism has been stamped out of the parts of the Congo along; the coast and the banks of the great rivers, but there is no doubt that it still flourishes in the wilds of the. interior, where are situ Warned by the Minister “Did you ever eat a pate a choux?” asked Ross of McKinstry.

To induce these natives to work, the Belgians devised a plan by which each man is taxed an amount of rub ber each other day that a careful cal culation estimates should be collected in 40 hours. For this he is paid at the market rate. Some such system as this which the missionaries in the employ of Congo Reform association persistently call “slavery” will have to be adopted by the Americans. Rockefeller, Jr., Interested. The American Congo company was formed especially for dealing in rub ber. John D. Rockefeller, Jr., is in terested in this company and plans to apply a newly discovered process to the manufacture of rubber. The So ciete Internationale is to exploit the mineral resources' and it is this in which the Guggenheims are interest ed. This latter company's engineers are now in the Congo making a sur vey. The party is in charge of A. Chester Beatty, an associate of John Hays Hammond; with S. P. Verner, Dorsey Mohun and L. N. Boll. They Started last spring and it is their task to make the preliminary surveys for a complete geological survey of the region. The concession was granted on con ditions that make certain the immedi ate opening of the country. The Americans must open 30 miles within six years, and they are to have the ex clusive right to the product of 20 of these for 99 years. Copper and gold are the minerals they expect to find in the greatest quantities. Gold has been found in rich deposits in the adjacent British and French territory, and the same veins run into the Congo. The ex istence of copper, all ready to be mined, has long been known. Plan to Benefit Natives. It is thd plan of these Americans whom King Leopold has interested in his African territory to treat the na tives on a plan that differs slightly from that of the Belgian concession aires. They will start plantations of bananas, peanuts and all the other fruits, grains and vegetables, for , which the climate is adapted; they will develop the fisheries of the great' rivers and employ the natives to can the products of both. They will at first supply the natives with every thing they need, including food and lodging, and pay them in beads and trinkets, gradually teaching them the use of money as a trading medium They will have to start schools and hospitals, and here Mr. Ryan will find wide scope for his philanthropy, al though the field is not virgin soil, for the priests and nuns of several re ligious orders are already in there and have done much splendid work among the natives. * Thus it is that New York million aires are at work exploiting alto gether about 166,000 square miles of African jungle, surveying virgin for est. boring into unknown mountains, building roads and railroads through trackless wildernesses and exercising absolute sovereignty over millions of naked man-eating savages, with a rea sonable prospect, whether they strike mineral wealth or miss it, of raising their millions to the billion mark. She Said the Wrong Thing. “I shall never forget the breakfast11 gave to a pretty girl when I first knew her,” the short man began. “It would make your mouth water to hear what it was. Grape fruit to begin with, the most delicate of breakfast food, with cream, a choice broiled chicken, a small champagne cup with it—it was a late breakfast—the finest of • fruit, coffee. 1 can’t remember the things I ordered for her at that breakfast, and what do you think she said when she finished? She said; ‘You needn’t have gone to so much trouble. I don’t care for anything but a couple of eggs for my breakfast and a piece of toast.’ ” “It was the wrong thing to say, I will admit,” sighed his wife. “I was that girl and I have been living ever since on a couple of eggs for my breakfast and a piece of toast.’ ” A light heart lives long.—Shake speare. pose it made any difference.

In a delighted whisper he said: “I have just learned that the boun tiful collation of?which we are about to partake is composed for the most part of dishes prepared by Mrs. Buck meister from suggestions given by the famous Mrs. Higgs, whose recent lec tures have been of inestimable value to our dear women.
